For all of those who died or are suffering a living hell to fight against Depression this inner demon my Brother Luca & I have launched a very simple initiative to raise awareness, take a stand and most of all raise funds for Depression Alliance to give a helping hand to someone that may be in need of a friend.
My Brother and I were both deeply saddened by the death of Robin Williams and as we both were touched by the same movie Dead Poet Society we thought we would remember the man and the actor, the same way as the boys in the movie. Oh Captain My Captain, they recite, standing on their desk, making a stand for whom they believed in.
The gesture is symbolic for taking a stand against this silent, devastating disease that ruins a person's ability to live happily and prosper.
The misconceptions about the disease attach a stigma of denying someone of acknowledging they are suffering a deep battle within themselves.
So let's take a stand and give a helping hand - to someone who deperately needs it.
Post your picture on any social media standing on a table or desk (yes just like in the movie Dead Poet Society) holding the sign #standupagainstdepression
